No audio after drivers installed

there were no problem devices. and here is my diag

when i run driver easy there is no sound driver to download and install

Try this next:

Open Device Manager, look under System Devices for Microsoft UAA Bus Driver for High Definition Audio
> Rt click, Uninstall

Then reboot. On startup Windows will reinstall the MS UAA Bus Driver. Let's see if it redetects/reinstalls your sound card as well.

If still no sound, repeat the Problem Report and DxDiag instructions again as you did before so i can see if anything changed since last time we tried it

ALSO...

you stated earlier..

Are you still seeing that message somewhere (in Device Manager??? or where??)

i saw that under control panel, sounds and audio devices then hardware and under properties i got that code. but now its gone i uninstalled it. i tried an older version 7012. still didnt work. i just tried the uninstall UAA and it did recognize it on start up and reinstalled it i guess but still the same msg when i do the diag.

1) Hmmm... So if you look carefully through all of Device Manager now, do you see any devices anywhere with a yellow or red icon? By chance, any category labeled Other?

2) Pls answer above question. Tho as best i can tell i think your sound card has died :dead: as doesn't seem any indication Windows can still detect the sound card hardware any longer

3) Thou you should also check your BIOS. If there's Onboard Audio listed is it set to Enabled?

If your gettin a new computer maybe then just as well... Otherwise, if sound card really did go kaput! (as it appears) USB sound cards are usually pretty cheap alternative (based on your needs and quality of sound you want, etc)

no red or yellow icons. and how do i check my BIOS? and in the mean time do you know of a way to get the sound thru my tv?

ok im gonna replace my sound card but i was looking to take the old one out and its just a tiny little metal cube. not a card like the one i was looking to get. if i install the new one without taking the old one out will it still recognize the new one?

There's a very strong possibility that the onboard sound went kaput. Your best bet, if you want to listen to music and watch movies on your computer before getting a new one, is to get yourself a new pci soundcard. They aren't expensive unless you want a high end audiophile/ or gaming grade card. Here's a good, basic, no frills card - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829102003

Whoa! Do NOT attempt to remove that "little metal cube"! It's onboard sound and is there to stay. The new card will cancel that out and take control over the sound.

sweet thanks guys! i really do appreciate you coaching me thru this all to just get a new sound card anyways! lol ill replace that for now. but i was already looking into a new comp. just saving up the funds for a custom one! THANK YOU!!!!!

lol ok.. i didnt touch it. its still there. doesnt look like it would come out anyways

You're very welcome! That's what this friendly little community is here for

alright so.... update. i got a crappy little usb sound thing. it works for the time being untill i get my new computer! again i really appreciate the help!!!!!! THANK YOU
